Katie Price has revealed the one outfit she wouldn’t revisit from her career, and it’s one part of her rise to fame that she quite regrets.
Ahead of the release of her new documentary Katie Price: Nothing to Hide, the media personality sat down with Radio Times to discuss her 30-year career – one that has played out in the public eye from marriages, motherhood and multi-million pound contracts to scandal, cosmetic surgery, bankruptcy and betrayal.
The first episode in particular focuses on Price’s first start in the public eye when she became a Page 3 girl for The Sun at just the age of 18, quickly becoming one of the most photographed women of her generation.
Looking back on that part of her life, Price noted that while there is not a lot she’d change, she admitted that Eurovision was the one thing she “hated”.
“It’s the biggest regret of my life, Eurovision,” she told Radio Times. “I have still got the Eurovision outfit in my garage, and I’ve still got the boots with it.”
Joking she might auction it off or have it in an exhibition at a museum, it’s clearly something Price doesn’t want to revisit.
Price famously competed to represent the United Kingdom at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2005 with the song Not Just Anybody. She went up against Andy Scott-Lee, Gina G, Tricolore and the eventual winner Javine.
In an episode of her podcast released last year, Price admitted: “I haven’t got any memories of Eurovision apart from when I was going to represent the UK in Eurovision and they weren’t good memories…
“The thing is I couldn’t even sing the song then and I couldn’t sing it now, yet I can sing. But I still can’t sing that song. I hated it. The whole bulls**t about, ‘oh you’re going to get a Sony album but you have to do this song’ and then they found out I was pregnant and then I lost my one percent.
“It’s just all political stuff, as usual but anyway, that’s always a regret of mine doing that. If there’s any regret of any job, it was me doing Eurovision in the pink rubber catsuit being seven months pregnant. Trying to hide the fact that I was pregnant.”
Katie Price: Nothing to Hide airs on Wednesday 8 July at 9pm on Sky Documentaries.
